I was so pleased with my DE 1911 G that I ordered this version from Bud's as well. It arrived very quickly (thanks as always Bud) and just like the larger version I bought before it is of excellent quality. Makes me think of an old Colt from the 70's or before, back when they made them like they gave a damn. And no firing pin safety, a plus in my book. All steel including the mainspring housing, not even my Kimber Stainless II has that. Speaking of Kimber I compared the sight dovetails on the DE's and my Meprolight equipped Kimber, looks like the Mepros should fit right onto the DE for those that are interested.

Considering what the Brazilian and Turkish 1911s are going for, for the same or maybe a tad more money you get a First World product that should last forever. Buy one of these before Magnum Research disappears.
